Which term describes a situation where a bond is forfeited if the surety does not comply with a court order?

The term "Estreat" refers to a situation in which a bond is forfeited when the surety fails to comply with a court order. In bail situations, if the defendant does not appear in court as required, the court may estreat the bond, meaning that the amount of the bond is declared forfeited and the surety (the bail agent or bond company) is liable for that amount. This serves as a financial consequence aimed at ensuring compliance with court mandates.

In contrast, other terms related to the choices provided do not pertain to the forfeiture of a bond following non-compliance with a court order. "Execute" generally refers to carrying out a court judgment or enforcing an order but does not specifically address bond forfeiture. "Extradition" involves the process of sending a person back to the jurisdiction where they are accused of a crime, which does not involve the concept of bond forfeiture. Lastly, an "Extradition Bond" is a type of surety bond that ensures a person will appear in another jurisdiction related to criminal charges, but again, it does not directly describe a forfeiture situation stemming from non-compliance with a court order.
